Scandal Intense, a 2025 feminine from Jean Paul Gaultier, was composed by Fabrice Pellegrin, Daphné Bugey and Nicolas Bonneville. It is described as spicy, sweet and floral in equal measure, and the three listed notes map onto those three words exactly.
It opens with cardamom, a cool, slightly green spice that gives the first minutes a lift before the sweetness arrives. The heart is ylang-ylang, a rich, creamy, slightly banana-like white flower. The base is vanilla absolute, dark and dense rather than light and sugary, which carries the scent for most of its life. With so few notes, the development is simple and the vanilla-and-ylang pairing is what people will remember.
Most wearers report long-lasting performance, and the projection is split between strong and moderate. It is voted for winter and autumn and leans towards the evening. It is listed as a feminine fragrance and suits cold nights and occasions where a warm, sweet trail is wanted.
